Less than 1000 miles on the route to go

A lot of off road cycling

Hi there, I'm in a town again. After Hachita I cycled to Silver City, where I met a couple of Dutch cyclists. I did 77 miles on one day and another reason for a 0 mile day was that the next part would be tricky since it is over 250 miles with ...

Daar ben ik weer. Nog steeds in Moab. Woensdag in Arches National Park geweest, veel foto's gemaakt, helaas was ik net te laat voor een plek op de campsite. Vandaag, donderdag, regent het en daarom ben ik nu in de bieb om wat foto's op te laden. ...
